Just finished it. For those who want a summary:

Grizzlies Owner Robert Pera has his entire networth ($30b) tied to his company, Ubiquity, that sells WiFi equipment.

This WiFi equipment is showing up on the frontlines of the Ukraine-Russia war in shocking numbers. Alleged that 80% of Russia’s communication network on the frontline relies on these devices. The video has pictures, video, and Russian soldiers on telegram begging for donations like twitch streamers so they can buy more.

Russia is under sanctions, so it should be strictly illegal to sell devices like this to them. His company got in trouble for doing the exact same thing in 2014 when his devices started showing up in Iran, and the US Government fined them $500k, small because it was a first time offense. Grizzlies Owner said if this happened again, he’d be fucked.

In the video, they show how easy it is for Ubiquity devices to be bought from third party sellers in Russia. Ubiquity has basically no sales team of its own, it relies on these third party sellers and washes their hands clean of wherever they might end up. This is one way to cut your costs, have no compliance officers.

They even talk to an american third party seller, and pose as a Russian trying to buy $80k worth of devices. They set them up with the transaction, by sending them to Turkey first, then Russia. This is blatant sanctions violation, like a textbook example.

Video ends with Pablo Torres asking if Adam Silver is fining Ja Morant for holding a gun, what should he do with the Grizzlies owner who’s evading sanctions (allegedly) making millions off the war in Ukraine while on Team Russia.

Mark Cuban: “C’mon, all NBA owners are linked to Russia somehow. This is a nothingburger.”

Wait… are billionaires what’s wrong with society and not immigrants?

Making his money off of war crimes and the guy still wont go into the luxury tax, only fuckin billionaires lol

Its been said over and over but there are no such things as good billionaires.

Ja was trying to tell us but we wouldn’t listen 

This is fucking disgusting, there is absolutely no way that the company isn’t fully aware and deliberately violating sanctions.

Sanctions are important because they are one of the few non-violent tools we have in foreign policy so when they are violated you are violating the security of the country (and the world) and this technology is so crucial to the Ukrainian conflict that you might as well be sending the Russians weapons.

On a related note, this article from last years says Russian govt hackers use these Ubiquiti routers as part of their botnet

“Russian hackers using ‘compromised’ internet routers for cyber operations, US, international law enforcement warn”

https://abcnews.go.com/amp/US/russian-hackers-compromised-internet-routers-cyber-operations-us/story?id=107616396

I’m tired boss

(bush meme) Sir, another NBA Owner got Pablo’d

Here’s the Hunterbrook article that broke the news if anyone prefers reading to watching/listening

All the billionaires are awful. They don’t want any competition. They all want their own fiefdoms where they can do whatever they want. We know from the Epstein files that several billionaires, with the implicit cooperation of the US and Israeli government, are literally raping kids because they can. I guarantee there are plenty of billionaires funding terrorist groups and funding horrible wars elsewhere. They’re all terrible.

“There’s a good chance I may have committed some light treason”

There is so much to find out!

Russian military funded franchise 

US company intentionally flaunting sanctions and export bans 

Is this Ubiquity different from Ubiquiti, also selling wifi and networking equipment?

At the rate Pablo is pissing of rich and influential people he better get some private security.

This team never should have left Vancouver

Pablo doesn’t have anything against NBA owners in particular, it’s just all owners are billionaire pieces of shit and Pablo’s one of the last few good journos left

Adam Silver: but look at how much money the NBA is making! I’m a success! Hey! Stop looking behind that curtain of everyone from refs to coaches to players betting on NBA games, owners literally breaking laws and every rule in the sport and domestic violence and poor character issues for star players in the league! Just look at the $$$

When Pablo gonna release the name of the ICE agents that murdered Alex Pretti??

Really good watch

Kind of ironic considering Trump and Putin are best buds. Am sure Trump would be thrilled that an American is making money off Russia and shutting up that ungrateful Zelensky..

Billionaires are legit the scum of the earth

Mark Cuban : “Hey, what’s wrong with a little war profiteering between friends?

Protect Pablo at all costs… he will continue to expose these corrupt billionaires. Now will anything change, probably not since the rich look at the rich, society will need to force a change at some point and take things into own hands while democracy is still alive

It’s truly incredible how PTFO is able to put out so much amazing stuff on a daily basis.

Sooner or later you’re going to realize that all people with this kind of money are bad people.

I think it’s more there is no ethical billionaire, so anyone owning an MBA franchise is at best a bad, at worst a monster.

Yet owners can donate all they want to Israel and no one bat’s an eye.

This is like Tony Stark in 2008 Ironman with the Jericho missiles… except this dude isn’t going to have a redemption story

Nothing will happen on the end. NBA will say they don’t police sanctions, and the Trump administration will do nothing. The previous fine to Ubiquity was under the Obama administration.

The card game?

If I’m Pablo, I’m turning down all the complimentary room upgrades to a higher floor.

Holy Shit, he is directly profiting off the bombing of Ukrainian civilians.

.NBA is going to hire a professional hitman to go after Pablo at this rate

Bro Pablo better be off the grid dropping stories like this, they’re coming for him

Ooh do Dallas next

Somebody keep an eye out on ol’ cart narc Pablo… I don’t want him missing or otherwise

My question is if Paolo is this good at finding dirt, and backing up the dirt with a trail of evidence, why is he in sports?  I feel like his talents would be better used to help the rest of society, not to generate talking points for sports fans.

Maybe that’s his long term goal, I don’t actually watch his podcast.

When the PED reports about Pablo come out it’s going to be sad but I’m still going to remember this like I do Bonds 2000-2004 run

It’s a crime to give routers to Iran because then someone might push back when the CIA claims eight bazillion people died in the latest protests there

maybe he just doesn’t like corruption?

Current NBA teams that openly enable genocide: Mavs, grizzlies

I feel like Pablo Torre missed his era. These stories would be nuclear in the 90s-00s but in the current climate they’re small potatoes.

Pablo pls be safe

How are y’all in here making jokes and shit? This is a big deal if true

There are (almost) no ethical billionaires.

I um….oh wow, yeah this is all stuff I’m pretty morally opposed to.

Why should anyone like an owner?

Well, at the end of the day, the way we punish wrongdoing companies in the USA is to fine them. If we had any balls, like those swinging when the Law comes after the average person, we’d indict and charge those billionaire’s criminally. That is the only way to stop this type of behavior from happening. Writing a check, is not punishment enough. Big Corporate spills toxic chemicals, manufacture’s goods that cause cancer, pollutes cancer causing chemicals all over the world. Why? Because they know, even before they start production, that the amount of money they make will dwarf any fines or lawsuit liability. And they can do this because specifically, they have the money to thumb their nose at justice. Why does the US Justice department have a 98% or better conviction rate? They don’t charge big-pocket individuals with crime. Remember the financial crisis in 2007-08? I don’t remember seeing any investment bankers being arrested and indicted, even though these were the one’s largely responsible for the crisis. What did the US government do? We bailed them out.

It’s funny how people run out of energy when it comes to consequences for billionaires for literally anything but are always primed and ready to shit on someone like Ja

Half the comments be like “idk man he’s a billionaire what do you expect”

The NBA has become way more corrupt under Adam Silver’s watch. It’s not even debatable.

You have to be a terrible person to be a billionaire,you dont get there being nice.NBA really needs to step in and investigate and if its true force a sale

Weird bit of NBA news crossed with Pro-America propaganda. What about the complicity of NBA owners in American war crimes?

Pablo Torre about to fly out of a window or fall off his roof

Pablo needs to do the Dallas Mavericks owners next

I might be misremembering this chronologically, but it is incredibly funny to me that Pablo Torre set out on this journalistic warpath with Bill Belichick and his weird girlfriend.

Went from alternating between lighter stuff and heavier stuff to Pablo just throwing hands with ERRBODY.

So excited for nothing to come from this

OFAC and BIS are going to rip this guy a new ass hole

“Ew journalism! That’s not fun bro!” McAfee (Probably)

Somebody get Cuban’s opinion on this

I can’t for the NBA to do nothing with this information, the same way they seemingly just allowed the Aspiration or whatever Clippers company shenanigans to die.

According to r/ubiquiti this is just a dumb hit piece

Interesting

Nothingburger. Just like the Clippers stuff 🥱 Guy needs to start doing something else.

Why would any normal person like ANY sports owner?

Lol, and? why does this matter?

Lmao at people getting mad at Ja for his shit tho

Pablo Torre comes off as so cocky, but ig it’s decently deserved. Fire stuff

Dude, Pablo is going to get silenced at this rate. The billionaires are going to retaliate. Hope this dude is alright and prepared for this.

Americans taking about crimes against humanity is fucking hilarious. 

Oh man, he is cooked. Adam Silver will have a big problem going forward. Free Ja Morant!

Pablo needs to stay away from windows for a while

How is this really that much of an exclusive? They’ve been doing the exact same shit since 2010. Were fined 500k in 2014. They “cooperated” with the investigation. What do people think will happen now?
